We have absolutely no idea how to score right now. We're just out there dribbling around with no purpose.

Im checking out. Injuries or not I cant watch this crap any longer. Might have a decent enough pick this year for Weltman to blow on another Jett Howard. Gradey sure looked good tonight hey?

Losing to scrub teams with 1 of Paolo/Franz/Suggs for games at a time with a bunch of mediocre overpaid never available players in the supporting cast.

Isaac could never play a game again and I wouldn’t care.



Isaac has been relatively reliable this season, to be fair.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

This stretch has been sad…

While Simons torched the Heat with 5 3s in the first half. Lucky if we make that all game.

Never available when we need him like we do tonight.

13 mpg when we dont.

Who cares.

Black with weak ass layups and mid range pull ups.

6’7 Markelle Fultz with better defense.

Houstan is home in Canada, just board the plane without him.

Raptors are shooting 52% from 3. That would beat basically anyone.

Guys like Queen and Houstan are one thing, but WCJ is supposed to be a solid NBA player. He has been worse than any number of unskilled-but-athletic hustle big men you can pull from the g league at any given time in any given year.

The regression of WCJ and Cole Anthony into 3rd string level players is as much a story this season as anything. Yes, injuries are the primary thing that have derailed our season. But these are two guys we have had available that have not delivered. Well, Cole at least had his moments, but has been awful overall. WCJ hasn't given us anything all season.

No hot takes from this disastrous game aside from officially disowning Wendell Carter Jr. Goga isn't an all-stsr but he has always stepped up and produced for us when his number was called. Wendell can't even give us NBA-level minutes when we desperately need him.
